Hi @directallied

The best way to do this is by understanding how Pinterest recommends content / shows pins to people... because it is a search and discovery platform, so thinking about it this way (sometimes we call this 'discoverability' of your account and pins!) will really help you grow. 

I'm going to drop a few links for you to read. This can be the start of your research on this topic! 

Pinterest Pioneer Michael wrote this excellent article about gaining followers:  https://community.pinterest.biz/t5/conversations/feeling-discouraged-trying-to-gain-new-followers-th... 

This article from Pinterest is one I read and re-read whenever I'm thinking about growth on the platform - both follower growth and discoverability. It's so helpful: https://business.pinterest.com/en-us/blog/how-to-build-audience-pinterest/ 

I also wrote this post here in the forum about growth: https://community.pinterest.biz/t5/conversations/how-to-grow/m-p/37670#M1840

Lastly, this post is a GOLDMINE for anyone who is focusing on growing their Pinterest followers, because it gives you a peek inside the thought processes that many of us have when we’re deciding whether or not to hit that “follow” button.
